- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.

Questions about Black Sheep Medellin
What time is check-in and check-out at Black Sheep Medellin?
Check-in is from 1:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Black Sheep Medellin allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Black Sheep Medellin?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Black Sheep Medellin have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Black Sheep Medellin have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Black Sheep Medellin?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 1:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Black Sheep Medellin?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
